20 y/o female (pics & summary) trying to clarify my polish heritage [26]
Thread attached on merging:Sorry if I came off the wrong way? (re: 20 y/o fem) trying this again..Well, sorry if anyone took those pictures the wrong way. They were in no way meant to be provocative. I guess I do have a tendency to do 'that' w/ my lips sometimes?.. i mean, for the most part, that's pretty much how i smile with my mouth closed.. regardless, those were the only pictures i had at the time as far as close ups of my facial structure go. I know that just facial structure doesn't tell everything, but I figured maybe someone more knowledgeable, who's of a stronger polish heritage or actually lives in poland, might be able to give me some insight to what i've been trying to figure out.
as for trying to "get attention," it is obvious that this forum is not to sell/put yourself out there in any way. i have no problems meeting people, and if i was that desperate to i would put myself on an actual dating site (no offense to anyone who is)
And like i said before, from what i understand, my
father's side appears to be mostly polish.. his mother (my only grandmother who is still alive) is fluent in polish. (She also had rhinoplasty performed in her mid twenties to, what she says, "fix her polish nose") my mother is
not polish. she comes from a french/native-american background. Genetically, I inherited half of both my parents' genes, so I suppose have some features of my mother. However, she has dark hair, brown eyes, olive complexion, and a more narrow face and nose. My father has a more round but prominent face, fair skin, blue eyes, blonde hair, and what we call a "polish" nose. I ended up with blonde hair, green eyes, fair/medium skin.. but you can see that for yourselves. obviously, i'm american. i've lived in florida all my life.. and i really don't like it, at all.
I would prefer to go out of the country to graduate school after i finish my bachelors degree here in the US. Maybe I'm naive and I don't appreciate the "freedoms and opportunity" we have in the US, but personally i am quite sick of the rude, greedy, prejudiced society i live in. Nothing is simple anymore and no one is ever happy with what they have. Maybe i see so much of this because i live in florida of all states. I haven't traveled anywhere in Europe yet, mainly because I wanted to wait till I was a little older so I would appreciate it more. I am looking into making a trip within the next year. I just know there has to be more than all of what I'm living in now.
I'm posting a few more pictures - not to "get attention," if i wanted attention i could find that elsewhere - just in case anyone can give me an answer that doesn't involve making fun of me or completely negating the reason i'm writing all of this. the last picture is of my father. it's not a great picture, but it's all i have at the moment.
I am a very kind and friendly person, and being mean/rude does not offend me for the fact that I don't know you and you don't know me. BUT any inference, (preferably respectful) would be very much appreciated :) thank you
